BRITAIN HAS NEW AUSTERITY PROGRAMME
London, Aug, 27. The Government tonight announced an economy programme to save imports worth £228,000,000 annually by imposing new restrictions on food, foreign travel and petrol.
Pleasure motoring will be banned altogether by the abolition of the basic petrol ration, which means that private consumers will get petrol only for the purposes deemed necessary for the life of the nation. Such allowances are made to doctors, officials and others. The weekly meat ration wil No exchange will be available.
